Most importantly, Texas has oil, gas, and refining capacity and would continue to produce and refine fossil fuels. Without Texas, the United States would not be able to wage war, lacking the energy to fuel its tanks. Texas could stand on its own, and to ensure energy, other Red States would join hands against Washington.
There is rising sentiment toward separation due to the Biden Administration’s abuse of executive orders. The Biden Administration thinks executive orders are the way to change the character of the United States without the people’s consent. Truman seized all the steel mills without statutory authority using an executive order that the Supreme Court reversed. We have so many violations using executive decrees without statutory authority, circumventing Congress and the people. The abuse of this power is causing severe discontent. People are talking about separating, even in Florida. When historically a centralized government seeks total control, it collapses like the Soviet Union. Most people do not know that Lenin wanted to copy the United States, whereas each province retained its sovereignty. Stalin poisoned Lenin and his wife and usurped total central control. Biden has endangered the survivability of the United States. Washington cannot override the sovereignty of the states.

I stand with Texas against the globalist traitors in DC.
Texas has everything they need within their borders to stand alone and what they don’t have they can import – as a sovereign nation.
Provided that they are left alone to accomplish that. I’m betting that will NOT happen.
I have a question where was Gov. Abbott during Trumps presidency? He was governor then why didn’t he work with Trump to secure the Texas border then?? This is just more smoke and mirrors. How do I know because it gets lamestream media coverage daily. Texas is not going anywhere. This is to show sheeple that you can’t trust Republicans. Look Republican governor Abbott goes rogue ignoring the US Supreme Court just like Republican President Trump will! We are being played. My opinion I could be wrong.
Tlate- The whole thing is a controlled media shit show. I decided to do a little research today about this migrant thing.
After seeing countless youtubes about the migrants living in the Roosevelt Hotel in NYC, which is also a processing center complete with a fair number of military, I wondered who owns that hotel?? To narrow it all down, the Roosevelt Hotel is owned by Pakistan and there was a deal in which Pakistan agreed to lease the hotel to NYC for 3 years in exchange for the sum of 200 MILLION dollars which Pakistan desperately needed. Bloomberg actually reported on this some time back.
I posted before on the massive amounts of scooters and motorcycles parked on the sidewalks around that hotel and wondered how the newly arrived migrants immediately afforded transportation. Also to make it short, the migrants rent them for $300 per week* and use them to do food delivery. The scooters/motorcycles are not licensed and most have fake tags, also the migrant have 7/8 month period before they can even get documentation to work here legally.
These migrants are working under fake identities to skirt the law mostly to send money back to family in Central and South America. There is a lot of profiteering going on not to mention the hotel/hospitality industry is making a ton of money off housing the migrants in general. These types of migrant scams are going on all over the country.
* The $300 scooters can be purchased outright for $800 to $1200 / the migrants pay $1200 a month to rent them….. who owns all these scooters? They are not licensed so hard to track that.
One can dream… #Texit
As I understand, The “Civil War” was ended by “Proclamation’ by Lincoln’s replacement.
Texas was the last State to be forced back into the “Union”.
In that “Proclamation” The President implied that the U. S. Government was going to come down hard on Texas or any other “State” if they tried secession again.
If I knew there was going to be a test, I would have taken better Notes.
Look up the Proclamations that ended the “Civil War”.
Texas won its independence from Mexico in 1836, and then founded the Republic of Texas, with Sam Houston as its first president.
Sam Houston was a Tennesseean by birth, but he ran away with Cherokees in his teens, learning their language and customs, eventually being formally adopted by the tribe; later, he served as a congressman and then governor of Tennessee. This is when he met President Andrew Jackson, who in 1832 sent Houston down to then-Mexican Texas (not much has changed, by the way) to negotiate Indian treaties for the protection of U.S. border traders.
Houston got to Texas just about the time they were about to rebel from Mexico, which some say is the real reason Jackson sent Houston down there: to get Texas in the Union. When the rebellion started in November, 1835, Houston was conveniently chosen to be the Commander in Chief of the Texan army.
Houston’s reputation was cemented when he defeated Santa Anna at the Battle of San Jacinto, something we grew up hearing all about when in grade school here in Texas, and he was made out to be a great war hero and a true Texan. You can see how history has always been whitewashed when you research so-called heroes — Sam Houston was definitely sheeted.
Honestly, Houston was chosen because of his allegiance to the Union, which did not endear him to most Texans. It was through his dogged, concerted efforts that Texas joined the U.S. in 1845. These efforts at preserving the Union were unpopular with the Texas legislature, and on the eve of the Civil War he was not reelected to the governorship, though he was again governor in 1859. He tried to prevent Texas from seceding from the Union in 1861, and when he would not swear allegiance to the Confederacy — showing who he really worked for — he was deposed from office in March of that year.
As you can see, had the Union not intervened Texas would have remained a Republic; but they would also have control over the Gulf of Mexico, then and now a crucial bit of water, and also the Mexican border (and you see how important it is to the Union today) — and not to mention the vast natural gas and other resources abundant in Texas. It was critical for the Union to get its hands on all that wealth; that was Sam Houston’s actual mission.
Texas could join OPEC and really stick it to Uncle Sugar
